This wee fuzzy will be listed on the TDIPT Merc tonight...I've been a busy girl...soooo I only have this one piece to offer. Make sure you come on by for a visit as there are sure to be some wonderful Spring offerings.

I have decided it is high time to start having blog sales of my work. I've had a lot of requests by folks who are frustrated at missing out on purchasing my pieces from the Merc. Ideally I would like to have a sale every couple of months where I will feature a grouping of pin-keeps, make-do's etc. all created around a central theme. Hopefully this will give folks more opportunities to purchase a piece...as always I welcome your comments & suggestions. I will send out an email notice to let folks know when these sales will take place...don't forget to join my mailing list.

April 1st tomorrow...Stampington's "Prim's" magazine should be hitting the bookstore shelves...still waiting for my copy...still sitting here staring at the mailbox...patience...patience...patience...

Waiting patiently for Stampinton's Prim's Magazine to arrive...some gals have already started getting their copies in the mail. This is the first time I have had an article/artwork published & I have to say it is so very exciting...I have heard through the grapevine that this Premiere issue is jaw dropping beautiful & the photography is nothing short of spectacular...

I deleted my last post...enough lolly gagging about...back to work...thought I would show you what I have been up to besides hiding under my blanky...afraid to look out...& still see snow on the ground...

I have been creating all sorts of pincushions...the graphics I have been using were gleaned from free clip art sites such as the "Graphics Fairy" & the "Vintage Moth" as well as my collection of antique books.

The wire wrapped heart cushions can be hung on your wall...each one has cross stitched details & a fabric bird scene sewn onto the front...there is also a plain fabric patch where you can keep a few needles & pins...twisted wire hangers were made for each one...

These ones are also made for hanging & look great as a group of three...I have them displayed on the side of my old jelly cupboard...

& last but not least...this little guy keeps me company while I type away on my computer...he has made himself at home in one of my vintage Fenton glass bowls...
